Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa are among the clubs chasing Como’s Martin Baturina this summer.
The Croatia international joined the Serie A side from Dinamo Zagreb in June 2025 and has starred in his debut season.
Operating mainly as a left winger and as an attacking midfielder, he managed eight goals and four assists from 34 matches. Tottenham, Aston Villa and other clubs have taken note of his performances.
On June 18th, Sport Witness covered claims from Italy that the Villans and Manchester United are in the mix. The Europa League winners have to be wary of the competition.
Tottenham and Aston Villa make contact
Martin Baturina can focus on a potential summer move, after Croatia’s elimination from the World Cup last week.
Monday’s edition of 24 Sata claims several national team players are ‘hot commodities’ in the market.
It’ll be difficult for the national team to overcome their World Cup disappointment. At the same time, the tournament has shown hope the youngsters are ready to become future leaders.
The focus is mainly on the 23-year-old and Inter Milan’s Petar Sučić, and the duo starred in the tournament.
Baturina has improved his game under Cesc Fàbregas, and this, coupled with the displays at the World Cup, could lead to a transfer.
That’s because the newspaper states ‘interest is increasing, offers are pouring in, but the price has risen drastically’.
The Serie A side have already rejected a €55m bid from an unnamed English club.
Since then, Tottenham Hotspur, Unai Emery’s side and Bayern Munich have shown keen interest and all of them have contacted the Italian club.
Como have specifically sent a message to these clubs that: ‘offer €80m and he’s yours’.
Contract, value and agent info
There’s no indication if any of the suitors are willing to meet or even come close to this price.
Martin Baturina has a contract until 2030, and Transfermarkt value him at €30m. There has been a €12m jump since joining Como.
Agency Bola, owned by agents Agron Krasniqi and Ismet Dizdarevic, represent the player.
